Spoilers for the week Carla returns, very exciting :o

 

 

Monday, 19 October 2009, 7:30PM - 8:00PM

 

Tonight's episode kicks off a dramatic and compelling week's viewing for Coronation Street fans as Carla returns to Weatherfield and time starts to run out for Tony Gordon...

 

It is the day of baby Liam's christening and after a difficult start to the day an uneasy truce is called between the Connors and Maria (Samia Smith) and Tony (Gray O'Brien). Helen (Dearblah Molloy) is touched and grateful when Maria relents and dresses Liam in the family christening gown. As the family settle down for lunch Tony poposes a toast but is interrupted by a phone call. Clearly unsettled by the call Tony tells Maria and the Connors that he has to go to an emergency meeting but assures them he'll be back in time to leave for the christening. Leaving the house Tony heads straight for the cemetery and Liam's grave where Carla (Alison King) is waiting for him!!

 

Elsewhere on the street Luke (Craig Kelly) is also keeping secrets as he furtively packs a bag. An unsupecting Rosie (Helen Flanagan) heads off to Underworld with him full of ideas about the changes she will make now that she is the majority shareholder - Luke strings her along whilst secretly deleting his computer files and planning his escape, but what exactly is he up to?

 

Pam (Kate Anthony) has been debt collecting for Bill (Peter Armitage) but he's less than impressed when she returns with a boat from one customer in lieu of payment. Joe (Reece Dinsdale) however is quite taken with it.

 

This episode is written by John Kerr and produced by Kim Crowther, the director is Duncan Foster.

PI for the rest of the week

 

Monday 19 October [2]

 

A stunned Tony (Gray O'Brien) takes in Carla's threatening demeanor at the graveside. It is clear she is here for a reason. She calmly tells Tony that he has overstepped the mark setting up home with Maria and the baby and that he has to end it now, sell her his shares in Underworld and leave Weatherfield for good - or she will tell the police everything. Tony's pleas that he loves Maria cut no ice with Carla (Alison King) and she makes it clear she means every word she has said.

 

Meanwhile back on the street Maria (Samia Smith) and the Connors are enjoying their pre christening lunch oblivious to the drama unfolding at the cemetery.

 

Carla's return has also had a knock on effect at Underworld as it starts to become clear to Rosie (Helen Flanagan) that Luke has been less than honest with her. Realising he has sold her shares that he no longer owns she tries desperately to cancel the cheque - but too late, Luke has cleaned her out and disappeared without a trace!

 

Elsewhere Gail (Helen Worth)is furious when Joe (Reece Dinsdale) returns home with a boat and Emily (Eileen Derbyshire) finds out Freda (Alil Briggs) has lost her job and her home.

 

This episode is written by Jonathan Harvey and produced by Kim Crowther, the director is Duncan Foster.

Thursday 22 October

 

Rosie's (Helen Flanagan) crisis over Luke's fraud proves the perfect cover for Tony (Gray O'Brien) as he struggles to come to terms with Carla's ultimatum. Telling Maria (Samia Smith) he has been caught up with Rosie's problems he arrives at the house in the nick of time just as the christening party are preparing to leave.

 

As they arrive at the church Tony gets a text and notices Carla (Alison King) sitting in a car nearby. Unnerved he approaches and she tells him that if he goes through with being godfather she will march into the church and spill the beans to the congregation. Tony begs her to wait until after the service for Maria's sake and promises he will meet her afterwards to sign over his shares. But as she agrees and leaves Tony makes a phone call - what is he planning?

 

Meanwhile Sally (Sally Whittaker) and Kevin (Michael Le Vell) console a devastated Rosie as she comes to terms with the fact that she has lost everything. Kevin tells her to go to the police but can't help but wonder if it is a blessing in disguise as Stape's money has caused nothing but problems.

 

It's Molly's (Vicky Binns) birthday and Tyrone (Alan Halsall) has arranged for Jack (William Tarmey) and Connie (Rita May) to join them at the Rovers - Molly is thrilled to see them and delighted with her presents - until Tyrone surprises her with his gift!

 

This episode is written by Martin Allen and produced by Kim Crowther, the director is Duncan Foster.

Friday 23 October [1]

 

Having held up the christening Tony (Gray O'Brien) finally arrives but no sooner have proceedings started than his phone goes and he hot foots it out of the church once more.

 

This time however it isn't Carla waiting for him, but Jimmy (Robert Beck), and Tony has the upper hand. Just as Carla had threatened him with the police Tony tells an agitated Jimmy that the time has come for him to get rid of Carla once and for all otherwise he'll have no choice but to tell the police everything. Realising Tony is not making idle threats Jimmy agrees. Back in the Church Tony takes his place beside Maria and prepares to renounce evil - knowing all the while that he has just signed Carla's death warrant!

 

Elsewhere Molly (Vicky Binns) explains to Kevin (Michael Le Vell) that Tyrone's gift of a home gym is going to make it very difficult for her to sneak off to the motel.

 

Norris (Malcolm Hebdon) is less than pleased with the noise Joe (Reece Dinsdale) is making working on his boat but Gail (Helen Worth) sticks up for Joe despite not being best impressed with the boat herself.

 

This episode is written by Chris Fewtrell and produced by Kim Crowther, the director is Duncan Foster.

Friday 23 October [2]

 

As Carla (Alison King) waits at the factory for Tony (Gray O'Brien) she hears a noise and, unnerved, leaves and heads back to her flat. Taking a call from her Tony realises his plans are unravelling and tells Jimmy (Robert Beck) to make his way to her flat. But as the clock ticks Tony starts to have second thoughts about having Carla killed and tries desperately to get hold of Jimmy and call off the hit.

 

Tension builds in this final episode of the week as Tony realises he has to try and get to Carla's flat before Jimmy but as Carla gets ready for bed she is confronted by the menacing figure of Jimmy and a struggle ensues.

 

Meanwhile Tony has told Maria (Samia Smith) that he needs a breath of fresh air and he races to the flat - will he make it in time or will he have the blood of another murder victim on his hands?

 

This episode is written by Simon Crowther and produced by Kim Crowther, the director is Duncan Foster.

Veteran Coronation Street actress Maggie Jones is in a critical condition after being rushed to hospital, Digital Spy can confirm.

 

The 75-year-old, who plays Weatherfield legend Blanche Hunt, was admitted to Hope Hospital in Manchester at the weekend for life-saving surgery.

 

It is thought that the soap star has now undergone an emergency operation, though full details are yet to emerge.

 

A Coronation Street spokeswoman confirmed to DS tonight that Jones remains at the Hope.

 

She added: "Our thoughts are with her family and everyone wishes her a speedy recovery."

 

Jones made her debut as Blanche in 1974 and played the role for four years. She later returned for guest stints and made a permanent comeback in 1998.

 

The actress has established herself as a fan favourite in recent years and won the funniest performance prize at the Inside Soap Awards last month.

:( Hope she gets better soon.

 

Loved all the stuff with Theresa on Monday :lol: who does Liz think she is though calling her "tragic", shes nothing but an old tart herself!

:lol: the actors who play Sean & Todd was in a gay club I was in on Thursday night, is Todd actually gay in real life :unsure: either way, Anthony Cotton looked stoned or with katie I'd say.

 

Edit : oooh and Sean gave me a hug lol had to put that in :lol:

Edited by Simon.

Is it wrong that I don't want Tony to get caught? I mean ... Tony was/is always interesting ... Liam on the other hand was dead boring ... now he's just dead. His character was really no loss to the show.

god why do they need to show it so late on ITV2

 

looking forward to seeing what happened with Carla :w00t:

:thinking: I'm pretty sure hes gonna be in the soap until at least January

Not that I watch Corrie, but I read in a soap magazine that Tony kills Roy at Xmas! :o

 

 

according to my local paper, on friday tony confesses to roy what hes done, tony is on his 'deathbed' after a heart attack, however, according to wiki, he makes a breif return next year..... as a ghost? lol, but i said to clare that if he doesnt die he would have to kill roy after telling him that! so who knows?

Rubbish! Won't happen. Corrie, like Brookside always has the element of 'truth will out' and offenders will be punished ... eventually. Unlike Eastenders in which I've lost count of the number of times killers have got-off with it ... just because the writers feel they HAVE to have the character remain (no matter how useless a tool - Phil for instance.)

 

I do think Corrie has made a huge mistake with Tony. I don't think they realise, despite him killing off Liam, the actor has made the character so bloody likeable ... we want him to get away with it and have a happy ending with Maria. Maybe it is the fact that as Liam was as dull as ditchwater - it makes Tony's crime seem less serious. But, justice will prevail and he will face up to his crime ... even though I'd say 90% of Corrie's audience want the character to stay - it doesn't sit right in our consciousness that a murderer should get away with it and the show's expert writer's know this.

Not necessarily.

Roy would never 'grass' ... he'd try and get Tony to own up ... but he himself would not 'grass'. Roy is a bit like a 'lay' Roman Catholic Priest. He would keep the confession to himself and try and get the offender to do the right thing. Tony knows this. Besides ... I've been keeping track of the same story and no-way does Roy get killed.

LOL, Wiki is edited by you, me and everyone else on here, basically. Anyway, he is, there are pictures of Tony and Roy in a lake, with blood all over them in that magazine :P
